This is something I want to do much more of in 2027! I want to compose and arrange more pieces, especially for my harp, my pupils, and my ladies choir. Perhaps we will do more of it in lessons too - using our current pieces as inspiration to compose our own pieces...?
I find it easy to forget that music is a creative pursuit. That sounds a bit daft, and you can certainly creatively interpret and play other people's music. But actually creating from scratch is something I very rarely do myself, or teach so watch this space!

I would absolutely more bassoon pupils - or any at all! 😂 It's such an incredible instrument that needs more appreciation. I can even rent you an instrument to get you started...

It feels so cliche to say Einaudi, but he's absolutely my go to when I get a bit of me time at the piano. Failing that, the expression and emotion of Chopin really does it for me too. Who's your favourite?

Try not to just get your instrument out and see what happens. Have a plan for what you'd like to work on in that session. It doesn't have to be a military operation but just spend the first minute sussing out how you'd like to spend the rest of your time and what needs looking at. Interestingly, I've been asking ChatGPT to structure practice sessions recently, or create 12-week practice plans say, even with advanced pupils. It's interesting to see what it comes up with, and it's often pretty good!

I saw this post just now and it really resonated: https://www.facebook.com/share/1CJitkKfe2/

I am constantly amazed by what I can do, and that I get to do it for my job. I look at squiggles on a page and my brain can read them as fluently as words and create beautiful music. Add other people in and it gets even more magical 🎶

One of my favourite quotes is something Dumbledore says in Harry Potter - "Ah music, a magic beyond all we do here at Hogwarts." And it's so true! Music is magic and I'm so priveleged to teach others that magic 🪄

The clarinet is a fantastic instrument to learn, lending itself to both classical and jazz beautifully. Let me know if you fancy clarinet lessons!

Encouraging pupils to play things their way and not just blindly follow how they've heard something before is always interesting! It got me thinking about which covers are better than the originals. Did you RESPECT was originally an Otis Redding song, not Aretha Franklin? Or that Whitney Houston's I Will Always Love You was actually a Dolly Parton original?

Slow down to speed up. It's so tempting to play everything fast. It sounds impressive, it "should" be that speed etc. etc. But if we can't play something accurately slowly, we're very unlikely to manage it at faster speeds. Take your time. Slow practice will ultimately speed up the speeding up!

The flute is such a lovely instrument and I don't get enough enquiries about flute lessons, certainly not as many as I used to. Hopefully that doesn't mean it's becoming less popular! Drop me a message about flute lessons today - I can even rent you an instrument 🎶
